Return to Full Model Power Analysis

Multiple Regression Analysis:    The full model R2 is based on all qf predictors in the model

                                                The semi-partial R2 is the unique R2 based on qh partialled predictors, over and above the remaining predictors.

                                                The value of qf is the number of predictors in the full model

                                                The value of qr is the number of predictors in the restricted model, i.e., the model without the partialled variable(s)

                                                The hypothesis degrees of freedom is qh = qf - qr

                                                The error degrees of freedom is N-qf-1

Factorial Analysis of Variance:  The full model R2 is based on all main effects and interactions. 

                                                The semi-partial R2 is the unique R2 based on the partialled effect, either main or interaction.

                                                The value of qf is the number of vectors required to code the full model main and interaction effects.

                                                The value of qr is the number of vectors required to code the model without the vectors of the hypothesized effect.

                                                The hypothesis degrees of freedom are dfh = qf - qr

                                                The error degrees of freedom are dfe = N - qf - 1
